Trying to draw free agents with Fizdale not because he knows how to coach but for all the wrong reasons. Well free agency didn’t go as planned now you’re stuck with a crappy coach and no end in sight. Make the damn move need and get a coach in here that know how to develop talent and get a plan of action here ASAP. You don’t have to waste a year to implement a plan.

So you want to reset and start over now... hmmm.. And wait another 5 years FROM NOW to watch winning team.
Ok. Good plan. Refreshing.

It took walsh a 1 yr half to turn this around, got rid of all of I T super bad contracts, drafted Danilo, Chandler, shumpert

the only benefit to this cluster **** that I see is that we will have another high draft opportunity. IF we got to trust the process then there could be worse things than trusting Frank, RJ, Kevin, and Mitch and adding whoever to the equation. We get to add more too because of KP. So we have some lotto tickets and winning the lottery is our only ****ing hope

Rainman, your over simplifying the process.

Donnie:

On April 2, 2008, the New York Knicks announced that Walsh had agreed to become their president of basketball operations.[2] Walsh immediately recognized the expensive long-term contracts the Knicks carried, and traded Jamal Crawford for Al Harrington. That same day,[when?] Walsh traded Mardy Collins and Zach Randolph for Cuttino Mobley and Tim Thomas. Though Mobley retired of a heart condition, his contract, as well as those of Harrington and Thomas, expired at the end of the 2009–2010 NBA season, decreasing the Knicks' payroll by $27 million and giving them enough cap space to sign anyone notable from the heralded free agent class of 2010 which included NBA players such as LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh, Amar'e Stoudemire, and Joe Johnson.

Walsh's first major signing came on July 8, 2010, when he signed Amar'e Stoudemire to a five-year, $100 million contract. In the 2010–2011 season, Walsh made a multi-player trade with Denver involving star players Carmelo Anthony and Chauncey Billups coming to the Knicks in exchange for a few players, including Raymond Felton and Danilo Gallinari, and undisclosed amounts of cash.

On June 3, 2011, Walsh resigned as general manager, but remained with the team as a consultant.[3]

Tyson:

On December 10, 2011, Chandler was acquired by the New York Knicks via sign-and-trade as part of a three-team trade,[26] joining the Knicks on a reported four-year, $58 million contract

So the deal would have been on Grunwald watch.
